I feel lucky to have worked with Linda as part of the initial Innovation Team. Under Linda's guidance, TPL added 3D printing and design technology, expanded access to industry-standard design software, launched the first iteration of the City Librarian Innovation Challenge and built connections to the Maker and Open Source communities.

Linda was tireless, encouraging, generous, funny and meticulous. Above all she was supportive and kind to myself and the rest of the team as we built a new service at TPL. She will be missed.
